Counterflows is a four day celebration of underground music, featuring a wide array of artists bound together by their questioning spirit and refusal of easy categorisation. Whether born out of the likes of so-called DIY scenes, the internet or geographically remote communities, we believe that the underground belongs to a myriad of voices and is best engaged with when we come together, share ideas, break down borders, challenge hierarchies and push boundaries.

The festival will unravel over a selection of carefully picked venues and spaces around Glasgow (with next-to-no scheduling clashes!). We hope to create a space for you to enjoy the music that feels inclusive, anti-elitist and fun, and hopefully in some way feels like an extension of the activity and community at the heart of Glasgow’s own music/art scene(s).
